From the Archives: Miracles and Science, Part 5http://biologos.org/blog/from-the-archives-miracles-and-science-part-5?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/from-the-archives-miracles-and-science-part-5?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationBy getting rid of the miracle stories in the Bible, Bultmann and his followers hoped to make the Christian story more palatable to modern man. Although I recognize the emotional weight of this sentiment, I am not convinced that it is an intellectually coherent approach, mainly for reasons of self-consistency.Fri, 02 Jan 2015 03:00:14 -0800Ard LouisSaturday Science Links: October 18, 2014http://biologos.org/blog/saturday-science-links-october-18-2014?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication

http://biologos.org/blog/still-surprised-by-easter?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationWe now take for granted an understanding of the Christian story that was largely worked out by Paul and later theologians. Even though the Gospels were composed after Paul’s letters, they were concerned to tell the story itself in all its strangeness as it had been preserved by the first generation of Christians. And what we find in the stories themselves is the shock and wonder and surprise that the resurrection caused.Sun, 20 Apr 2014 04:00:01 -0700Jim StumpDoes Resurrection Contradict Science?http://biologos.org/blog/does-resurrection-contradict-science?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/does-resurrection-contradict-science?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationSo what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.Fri, 29 Mar 2013 12:58:03 -0700Matt J. RossanoSearching for Motivated Belief: Understanding John Polkinghorne, Part 2http://biologos.org/blog/searching-for-motivated-belief-understanding-john-polkinghorne-part-two?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/searching-for-motivated-belief-understanding-john-polkinghorne-part-two?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationTo understand more clearly where Polkinghorne lies on the larger landscape of science and religion, let’s consider his approach to the Resurrection. Many contemporary thinkers, including some theologians and clergy, believe that “science” has somehow made it impossible to believe in the Resurrection, the deity of Jesus, and even belief in the transcendent God of the Bible.Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:00:08 -0700Ted DavisCreator of the Stars at Nighthttp://biologos.org/blog/creator-of-the-stars-at-night?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication

http://biologos.org/blog/did-david-hume-banish-miracles?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication“I flatter myself,” Hume triumphantly proclaimed, “that I have discovered an argument . . . which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures.”Wed, 05 Sep 2012 05:00:44 -0700Rick KennedyDivine Action in the World, Part 4http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-4?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-4?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationIt is a very common idea that if you believe in miracles, you are somehow not accepting science. My conclusion is that that’s not true at all, either under the old or the new picture; there isn’t any conflict between thinking God acts specially in the world and enthusiastically endorsing all of contemporary physics or whatever science you like.Tue, 04 Sep 2012 05:00:33 -0700Alvin PlantingaDivine Action in the World, Part 3http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-3?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-3?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationClassical science as such is perfectly consistent with special divine action including miracles, walking on water, rising from the dead, creating ex nihilo a full-grown horse, and so on. There is no science-religion conflict here at all; there is only a religion-metaphysics conflict.Mon, 03 Sep 2012 05:00:37 -0700Alvin PlantingaDivine Action in the World, Part 2http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-2?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-2?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationPhysics tells us lots of other things, but it does not go on to say “and furthermore the whole material or physical universe is a closed system”. That would be more like a theological or philosophical add on, that would not be part of the science just as such; you won’t find that in any physics textbooks.Sun, 02 Sep 2012 05:00:41 -0700Alvin PlantingaDivine Action in the World, Part 1http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-1?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/divine-action-in-the-world-part-1?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationI want to talk about a certain kind of objection to Christian belief that some people raise. They claim that central doctrines of Christianity are contrary to science, and therefore, are suspicious or incredible such that one can’t be rational in accepting them.Sat, 01 Sep 2012 05:00:45 -0700Alvin PlantingaDavid Lack: Evolutionary Biologist and Devout Christianhttp://biologos.org/blog/david-lack-evolutionary-biologist-and-devout-christian?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/david-lack-evolutionary-biologist-and-devout-christian?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationCharles Darwin’s personal struggles and ultimate rejection of Christianity are well documented, and people are eager to link his loss of faith to his evolutionary theory. David Lack, on the other hand, began his scientific career as an agnostic, but shortly after publishing his famous book on the evolution of "Darwin's finches", he converted to Christianity.Tue, 07 Aug 2012 05:00:52 -0700Thomas BurnettThe God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action, Part 3http://biologos.org/blog/the-god-who-acts-part-3?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/the-god-who-acts-part-3?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationThe Enlightenment view of an “interventionist” God does not accurately reflect a biblical understanding of a Creator who is both transcendent and immanent—fully present and continuously involved in his creation.Fri, 25 May 2012 04:59:18 -0700Thomas BurnettThe God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action, Part 2http://biologos.org/blog/the-god-who-acts-part-2?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/the-god-who-acts-part-2?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationIn scripture, God is everywhere and always present, always knowing and always acting. There aren’t any phenomena that proceed completely independently of God.Thu, 24 May 2012 07:00:43 -0700Thomas BurnettThe God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action, Part 1http://biologos.org/blog/the-god-who-acts-part-1?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/the-god-who-acts-part-1?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationThe notion of God’s acting in the world is central to the biblical witness. From the call of Abraham and the Exodus from Egypt, to the birth, ministry, death and raising of Jesus, God is represented as making new things happen.Wed, 23 May 2012 08:54:29 -0700Robert John RussellA BioLogos Response to William Dembski, Part 1http://biologos.org/blog/southern-baptist-voices-a-biologos-response-to-william-dembski-part-i?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
http://biologos.org/blog/southern-baptist-voices-a-biologos-response-to-william-dembski-part-i?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_SyndicationWe think that God created all living organisms, including humans, through the evolutionary process. But acceptance of creation through evolution does not mean that we reject the notion of a miracle-working God.
